Bert's Been Busy!

[PolishWineP]

Well folks, Poor Bert has been one busy guy! In less than a week out in his shop, he cranked out this wine rack! I love it!

Ain't she purty!? He used plywood and left over finishes that he already owned. My kind of guy! It is screwed to the wall to prevent alcohol abuse.


We put some bottles in it to showcase it's qualities!

This is the racks we ordered on line from Sam's Club a few years ago. It needs filling! Look at all those open spaces! Either that or we need to quit drinking wines.

We know THAT'S not going to happen!

That is exactly what I want to make. I have the same wire racks you have. We are getting ready to move and the wire racks are not going to meet any of the decor requirements at that house but I could make those cube racks work great. Tell Bert great job. Did he use a plan or just make them on the fly?

Now that's my kin of cube Bert! It looks like it wil hold 12-14 cases of wine! Looks to be about 4 feet by 4 feet. Way to go.

Great Job Bert!

I can tell your one of those guys who didn't sleep during shop class in high school. That's when they had shop class.


PWP, it's time to get cracking and fill those empty spaces with vino, afterall you don't want Bert to feel unappreciated for all his pains taking efforts do you?

Looks great!!!

Bert, if you have a sketch/plan for that on paper and cannot convert it to electronic media, I can. PM me and I will give you my address.

 

[Fly boy]

Very nice. I would like to get a copy of those plans if available. Lots of nice bottles, too.

 

[PolishWineP]

The princess will see what she can do to get this into photographic and text instructions. He kind of flew by the seat of his pants.

It will look even better after this coming weekend. I am going out of town, leaving Poor Bert home alone, and he's going to bottle some more wines!

I

this guy! I go play and he stays home and plays!

 

[Bert]

THANK YOU to all of you for the nice compliments on the wine rack...I had no plans on paper, just some ideas on what I wanted to do....But I will put some planstogather for those that are interested....

 

[LeiniePrincess]

[Wade E]

Here's some pictures of our carboys.

The carboys above are aging in the basement. They spend their days and nights watching movies and snoozing.
Below we have the carboys upstairs, where it's a bit warmer. This is our fermenting room, aka office.

Salut!
